Domain transfer/renewal
-
Hey, apparently my domain bigeasysportstalk.com has expired again, but I can’t find any options in my account to renew it. How can I renew it, and if possible can we move the domain registration over to namecheap to make this less of a hassle in the future?
Thanks!

That last line is incorrect. Bigeasysportstalk.com is still registered via WordPress, and that’s what I’m trying to renew before it gets too late.

Hi there,
The last payment we’ve received for your domain was in February 2014.
In March 2016 we restored the domain for you after you contacted us in https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/renewtransfer-domain?replies=6. We sent you a manual payment link to pay for the domain’s recovery, and that payment still shows as unpaid in our system.
Your domain is now expired again and has entered redemption with our domain provider. At this point it’s still possible for us to get it back, but our registrar charges a $80 fee to restore the domain at this point.
Please let me know if you agree to that fee and I can get the recovery process started for you.

Hey, thanks for the response! Yes, the fee is fine. Sorry about the email issues, I thought any bills would show up in my account billing page. I’ll make sure to look for a manual link via email.
-
Thanks for confirming. I’ve sent you a payment link via email to the address connected to your WordPress.com account. Once we receive your payment I can email our domain provider to recover the domain.
-
We’ve received your payment, thank you, and I’ve emailed our registrar to restore it. I’ll let you know as soon as I hear back from them.
-
We’ve followed up with you via email as well, but I just wanted to let you know your domain has been restored and we’ve reactivated it on your account.
If you still want to transfer the domain away completely you should now be able to do so via My Site ->Domains. You can find complete instructions here:
